Office building, police station, police station.
Chen Ning was locked up here, completely at a loss.
She kept banging on the door, trying to get someone to let her out, but no one paid any attention.
She wanted to call the police, but then she suddenly remembered that this was the police station. Who should she call to report the crime?
"Girl, I advise you to shut up! You actually dared to throw boiling water on Director Chen, you're finished. Don't even think about getting out for at least ten days or half a month. Even if you do get out, you'll have a criminal record, and you'll never be able to do anything in your life!" The guard said with a sneer through the iron gate.
Chen Ning's face darkened as he said, "You are clearly all in cahoots, working together in the same boat! The Imperial Inspector will not let you get away with this!"
"The Imperial Inspector? Haha, I think you're mentally unstable. You really think you know the Imperial Inspector? Don't you know who you are?" The guard sneered disdainfully, his eyes full of mockery, thinking that this woman was delusional.
"I'm not lying! I do know the Imperial Inspector!" Chen Ning said through gritted teeth in anger.
The guard laughed: "Alright! Then hurry up and call your inspector and ask him to come and rescue you!"
"Me!" Chen Ning was stunned.
She desperately wanted to contact Lin Yu immediately, but suddenly realized that she hadn't exchanged any contact information with him yesterday.
For a moment, I felt helpless and desperate.
But then she suddenly remembered what Lin Yu had told her yesterday, that he believed they would meet again soon. Hope rekindled in her heart, and she shouted, "The Imperial Inspector will come looking for me sooner or later! When that happens, none of you corrupt officials will escape!"
"What the hell are you talking about? Damn it, have you gone too far?" The guard was so angry that he immediately raised the whip in his hand.
"stop!!"
At this moment, a middle-aged man hurriedly came over from a distance. It was none other than Chen Tao from the Health Department.
The guard naturally recognized Chen Tao and said with a smile, "So it's Director Chen. Don't worry, Director Chen, if this woman dares to disrespect you, we'll teach her a lesson!"
"Clean up my ass! Release them right now!" Chen Tao cursed.
The guard was stunned for a moment. "Director Chen, you?"
Chen Tao glared at him, "Are you fucking deaf? I'm telling you to release them right now, that's the mayor's order!"
"Huh? The mayor's order?"
The guard was terrified, sweating profusely. He knew Chen Tao wouldn't lie, so he had no choice but to open the door.
Chen Tao quickly went to greet him, smiling broadly, and said, "Little Chen, I'm so sorry you had to go through all this trouble!"
Chen Ning walked out with a cold expression and reached out to Chen Tao, "Give me back the token!"
She knew that Chen Tao's drastic change in attitude must be related to the token, and he might have already verified its authenticity.
Chen Tao gave an awkward laugh and said, "The token is in my office. Let's go back to the office and talk!"
Soon, the two returned to Chen Tao's office.
Chen Tao took the red token and returned it to Chen Ning, saying with a smile, "Little Chen, it was all a misunderstanding before. Uncle Chen apologizes to you. As for this selection, I've already put your name on the public notice. Moreover, our team has decided to appoint you as the deputy director of the office!"
"What?" Chen Ning thought he had misheard.
She had only applied for a regular clerk position, but unexpectedly, the other party directly offered her the position of deputy director.
Chen Tao chuckled. "I told the mayor about your situation. I said you were first in the written exam, and you did very well in the interview. You're also a top student from Renmin University, a rare talent. That's why the mayor decided to promote you exceptionally!"
"Oh? Is that so?" Chen Ning sneered disdainfully. "Isn't it because of this red token? You're worried I'll report you to the Imperial Inspector, aren't you?"
Chen Tao looked somewhat embarrassed and laughed, "Look at you, what were you thinking! Xiao Ning, you have to trust the organization. Actually, when I mentioned the 500,000 to you before, it was just to test you!"
"A test for me?" Chen Ning asked in surprise.
Chen Tao nodded, sighed helplessly, and said, "In recent years, there have been too many cases like this. Many people pay their way in! This is not good for the development of our team!"
At this point, Chen Tao's expression turned serious, and he said righteously, "What our team needs are people with principles! That's why our government has set up this test. If a candidate passes both the written and oral exams, this is the test! If you really take this 500,000, let me tell you, even if you get first place in both the written and oral exams, we won't hire you! Because we don't need people without principles!"
"What? You mean, you asked me for 500,000 before just to test me?" Chen Ning asked with a suspicious look.
It just feels pretty absurd.
Is this something a legitimate organization would do?
Chen Tao gave an awkward smile. "Don't blame me. This is what the city asked us to do. It's to attract some truly principled talents! I'm sorry I scared you just now!"
"No need, no need!" Chen Ning quickly waved his hand, feeling somewhat flattered.
Chen Tao smiled and nodded, "In that case, let's go through the procedures. Go to the personnel department in a bit, and the staff there will help you with your onboarding!"
"Um, well..." Chen Ning hesitated for a moment and said, "I think I should start from the bottom. Firstly, I am not qualified enough to be a deputy director. Secondly, I didn't get the position through a proper exam, so my colleagues probably won't respect me!"
"What kind of talk is that!" Chen Tao's eyes narrowed. "This is an exceptional promotion, approved by the mayor himself. Who would dare to talk nonsense? Don't worry, if anyone dares to gossip, come to me, and Uncle Chen will take care of them for you!"
"Uh, this..."
"Oh, alright, alright, it'll be noon soon, hurry up and go!"
Urged by Chen Tao, Chen Ning had no choice but to reluctantly accept the fact and report to the personnel department.
Just as Chen Ning embarked on his official career with trepidation.
Downtown, Caesars Bar.
A jeep slowly came to a stop.
Lin Yu looked out the window and clicked his tongue, "How can a bar be so lively in broad daylight?"
Feng Jiu nodded and said, "Yes, young marshal, this Caesar Bar is one of the most popular bars in the Protectorate. It's packed every weekend. Today happens to be Friday, and there are quite a few students and office workers who have come here to have fun during their holiday!"
Lin Yu frowned. "Are you sure that bastard Li Gan is in this bar?"
Feng Jiu nodded quickly: "Yes, young marshal. According to the brothers' intelligence, the owner of this bar is named Wang Jianhua. He is Li Gan's best friend. Li Gan owns half of the shares in this bar. Li Gan comes here almost every morning to hang out with a bunch of cronies!"
Lin Yu nodded, a murderous glint in his eyes, and said with a slight smirk, "Very well, today, Young Master Li's reign is over!"
